Christmas Gifts for Movie & TV Geeks

It's that time of year again, and we all have that one annoying person to buy for. I'm here to give you some ideas for how to shop for the TV and Movie nerd in your life. Us "geeks" have specific tastes, but the one thing you'll know for sure , is what their favourite movie or TV show is. So this guide should help full-proof your gifting choice.

Stranger Things - Eleven Bleeding Nose Candle  - £29.99

Firebox is my go to place for buying fun presents. Especially ones for people into pop-culture. With the popularity of Stranger Things, you can guarantee plenty of people will have one of those Topshop tee's, but this is a little more . . . bitchin'.   


DARK INK ART - OFFICIAL LICENSED ARTWORKS 

I'm a sucker for a cool piece of alternative poster art. There's been an influx of artists and dealers in recent years, and Dark Ink Art are one of those distributers who have a huge range of limited and licensed art works from a range of artists, such as Dan Mumford and Florey. They specifically deal in Lucasfilm, Dreamworks and 20th Century Fox art. So there's a ton of cult classic choices! I love the four prints below! 




The Thing: Infection at Outpost 31 Board Game - $60

The Thing board game - $60 plus shipping


Rick & Morty Christmas Jumper - $60




Jaws Soundtrack - Mondo Exclusive - £40


Star Trek Enterprise Pizza Cutter - £25


Star Wars Darth Vader Teapot Set - $60



The Grip on Film - by Richard Ayoade £11.99

Official Synopsis: Gordy LaSure's passionate about film. He eats film, he drinks film, and sometimes he'll even watch a film. But most of all he loves talking to people about film: whether a comely student with low confidence and a father complex, a Studio 'development' exec who doesn't trust his own judgement, or the countless people Gordy LaSure's encountered in his capacity as the web moderator on an Excessive Sweating Discussion Forum. 

Gordy LaSure's always talking about films and how they'd be a shit ton better if only people would pull their asses out of their ears and listen to Gordy LaSure.

The voyage of this book can be categorised as an attempt to understand How In Hell Film Works. Why are some films bad, and some films terrible?

Stranger Things Cassette Tapes - Invada Records £19.99


Original Film Posters £100 - £2k +

Original movie posters are rare, and to gift your movie loving family member an original poster of a film they love is truly something special. Depending on the demand, condition and status of the film, these can come at a hefty. Cheaper options are buying damaged posters, or new movie posters that could hold value in years to come. 



Well, if there isn't something there that you'd like to buy, then I at least hope you got some good ideas. Records, posters, books, home and kitchenwares . . . you name it, there's a geeky version somewhere. 

Merry Christmas ya'filthy animals, and a happy new year.
